Chapter 550 Naruto vs Shiro
“Huh~”
Naruto let out a long breath, put away his fists, and looked at Shiro expectantly: "How about it, Uncle Shiro, can I pass the second level of the Illusion Trial now?"
"Although I may be trying to discourage you, I still have to tell you that you still can't pass the second floor. You've been there before, and I think you should know that the opponents on the second floor are already ninjas.
You, who only know fighting skills, are simply unable to fight them. This is a gap in strength, after all, your age is there."
"Then there is no other way?"
"Give up. This is a gap in basic quality. Don't forget, you are only three years old. You relied on skills and planning to slowly grind through the first level. Do you think your planning and skills are better than those of a ninja?"
Shiro narrowed his eyes at Naruto, who was frowning in distress. "Also, why do you want to become stronger so much? Did anyone tell you something?"
".No."
"Okay, I won't make it difficult for you if you don't want to tell me, but if you want to become stronger, there's no other way, at least not now."
"When will it be available?"
Seeing Naruto's anxious look, Shiro sighed. This was simply a case of trying to cover up one's own faults.
". Forget it if you still say no. I won't interfere with your decision. If you want to become stronger quickly, you have no choice but to wait."
"wait?"
"That's right. Wait until you grow up. As for you now, no matter what method you use, it will be useless. A tall building starts from the ground. I think I should explain the meaning of this phrase."
".I understand. What should I do now? Should I continue practicing Bajiquan?" Naruto was silent for a moment, and then a determined expression appeared on his face.
"Your expression is good, but you only need to practice Bajiquan every day. Now I will teach you a new fist technique."
"A new boxing style? But I feel like Bajiquan is already very strong. If I specialize in it, it won't be too bad. I remember Uncle Silang was very supportive of Bajiquan when we were choosing the physical skills?"
Naruto frowned when he heard Shiro's arrangement. He didn't quite understand what Shiro meant. When he chose Bajiquan, Shiro said that this boxing style had great potential.
But now I have just started learning Bajiquan, and I want to learn other styles of boxing. Doesn’t this go against my original decision?
Naruto still understands the principle of being broad but not deep.
"That's right, but Naruto, there's a saying that goes 'learn by analogy'. Learning a hundred martial arts styles will be of great benefit to your Bajiquan practice. If your taijutsu talent is average, I would only teach you Bajiquan to avoid distraction. But Naruto, you have a strong talent, so we need to change our approach.
This is also the reason why no one ever says anything to you even though you can't keep up with Grandpa Tiezhu's classes. It's not because they spoil you, but because you have enough talent, but it's not in sealing techniques or even most ninjutsu."
"I understand what Uncle Shiro means." Naruto took a deep breath, "So what should I learn next?"
"What I'm going to teach you next is a stealth boxing technique called the Viper Hundred Arts, known for its bizarre attack angles (see the author's description for detailed word count)"
"Ask a question!"
"Um."
"Uncle Shiro, why don't you teach me Konoha's fluid techniques? As a Konoha taijutsu ninja, it would be too lame if I can't even do the village's taijutsu."
When he said this, Naruto's face was full of disgust.
"Stop talking nonsense. There's no need for you to learn Konoha's fluid techniques. Nine out of ten moves rely on brute force, and the remaining one relies on combat experience.
That is, I focus on fighting techniques, with little or no mention of performance techniques and core training methods. When have you ever seen me train you like your Uncle Dai did when it comes to physical training? "
Naruto nodded in confusion. Although he still didn't fully understand it, with the help of his innate special abilities, he roughly knew that his current choice was the right one.
"Remember one thing, the Viper Hundred Arts is a very simple fighting method. It will only be most effective the first time you use it on the same enemy, because it is essentially a stealth boxing technique, although it is also very powerful in frontal attacks."
Shiro waved to Naruto, signaling him to take a few steps forward. After Naruto walked in, he suddenly struck out with his left hand!
Naruto's pupils shrank, and he subconsciously raised his hands and crossed them in front of him, ready to block Shiro's oncoming attack!
However, the expected attack did not come. Instead of waiting for the attack with his crossed hands, he received a slight attack on the back of his head.
"I held back on that attack just now. I originally kept the force at a level that was just enough to knock you out."
"That means the force will be reduced if you attack the back of the head. Furthermore, if the attack is strange, then you need to defend from the front as well. It's clearly a one-handed attack, but you have to defend from two opposing directions simultaneously? That's really strange."
Thinking about this, Naruto took a few steps back and rushed towards Shiro again.
Just like before, Shiro's left hand swung out instantly and shot towards the back of Naruto's head. When Naruto turned sideways to dodge, Shiro's left hand suddenly hit his head from the front as he expected.
Naruto, who grasped the rhythm, began to resist Shiro's constantly changing attack direction of his left hand in an orderly manner. Up, down, left, right, front and back were all within his attack range!
Fortunately, the speed was not very fast, otherwise Naruto would definitely not be able to block it.
Of course, while blocking, Naruto's attention did not leave Shiro's right hand. He believed that the right hand that had been motionless was definitely a killing move!
Unfortunately, human energy is limited, and there is always a loophole. Under Shiro's continuous attack, Naruto finally revealed a flaw, and then
"puff!"
Shiro waited for an opportunity and grabbed Naruto's neck with his right hand. With just a squeeze, he could end Naruto completely!
But this was just practice, so Shiro loosened his right hand and put Naruto down.
"How's it going? Have you learned all about the art of venomous snakes?"
"Well, the strange left-hand attack path and the hard-to-defend right-hand attack path. But just like Uncle Silang said, it only works best the first time. If you encounter a well-prepared expert, this move will hardly work."
"Yes, after all, it's an assassination boxing technique. This is what you need to learn. Once you master this, there won't be many people of your age who are better at physical skills than you."
"People your own age?"
Naruto frowned, a little dissatisfied with the result, but this was normal because he was now invincible among his peers.
Are you kidding? Which three-year-old kid can beat him?
"Did you forget your height?"
"What the hell is his height!"
Naruto was stunned for a moment, then cursed, his face grim. He suddenly remembered that the Viper Baiyi's left hand needed to be long enough to strike the back of the opponent's head, and the right hand had to be kept at the same level as the throat at all times.
Therefore, this trick can only be used against people of the same age, because they are not tall enough.
But Naruto did not give up because he believed that everything Shiro taught him was meaningful.
Assassination Fist "Snake"
A martial art honed by an assassination organization, it is characterized by the ability to move freely with the left hand and deliver a powerful blow with the right hand, specializing in surprise attacks. After being strengthened by Caster's magic, it has the power to fight a Servant on equal terms if it is the first encounter. [9]
Soichiro Kuzuki had spent twenty years of his life, day after day, perfecting a set of killing techniques. The trajectory of his attacks was extremely unique, a technique well suited to sudden and violent attacks. Even Saber, with her superb swordsmanship and Rank-A intuition, would be caught off guard and injured by this bizarre technique upon first encounter.
Using his elbow as a fulcrum, his left hand swung like a whip, each strike aiming for the vitals. Though the impact was modest, it could cause the opponent's consciousness to pause due to the pain. Seizing that momentary opening, he struck the back of the head, a strike that, even if not fatal, would still cripple their consciousness. As the opponent focused on the back of the head, the attack trajectory suddenly shifted from a circular trajectory to a linear one, striking directly at the head from above.
The right hand is always placed at the same height as the opponent's throat, and when the time is right, it will be launched like a cannonball, aiming to penetrate the throat and break the bones. Even if the opponent dodges the blow, the "fist" will immediately change to a "grab" to crush the neck.
However, the maximum effectiveness of this arm technique is limited to the first fight. For those who don't know martial arts or are half-baked, it would be difficult to adapt no matter how many times they have seen it. But for a martial arts expert, after just one encounter, he is likely to see through the trajectory of his moves. This is because the group trained him for the sole purpose of using him once.
